In Real Clear Religion, I discuss why the FBI could have and should have stopped the Boston Marathon jihad bombings.

I agree...absolutely. One of the old “gov workers” said there was nothing we could do and that we did look at them. BS

The Boston Marathon celebrates Patriots' Day, the anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord. Recall the chronology.

19 Apr 1775 Battles of Lexington and Concord

10 May 1775 Green Mountain Boys take Fort Ticonderoga from the British

03 Jul 1775 George Washington takes command of the Continental Army in Cambridge, MA

1775-1776 Cannon from Fort Ticonderoga hauled to the Boston area and set up on the hills overlooking Boston, forcing

17 Mar 1776 British withdraw from Boston

So in less than one year, the militia and Continentals had taken on the greatest military power of the time, and forced them out of one of the major ports in North America.

One year from the Boston bombing, we're almost ready to try the perp. Other Moslem invaders are still here, some still collecting welfare. In colonial times, those loyal to the Crown would have been dealt with. Tarred and feathered, etc.

Well, isn’t hindsight so fabulous. Surveillance could only pick out so much information, because the people watching were only human. As far as crime, well, you can punish a perp, right?

IMHO, soetoro was quite pleased, as murdering or facilitating the murders of Americans is what he does best.

The article notes that “at least one foreign government” warned that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a terrorist. Gee, I wonder what government that was? Well, actually it was the Russian government through their national security service. While not a big fan of Putin and the FSB, at least under George W. Bush we had dialog with them on muslim jihadists. 0bama has chosen to ignore the information. That tells the Russians a couple of things:

1. Our regime does side with the terrorists,
2. And does so against our own national interests, and therefore
3. Our regime is run by idiots

Here in Boston today, what you hear is blah, blah, rah, rah, Boston Strong. The sheeple need a comforting “rallying cry”. Fools, the lot of them who eat this up. BS is right.

We are too afraid to confront our enemy and this threat. More atrocities will continue until we do so.

By the way, why is the (known) surviving terrorist still alive?

Have you noticed how the Nina Burleigh Press is all over this one like they were about Bush and 9/11 missed signals? ,.......... thanks to Jamie S. Gorelick “rules of engagement” FBI/CIA.
How could the “intelligence” not go back for more info or clarification re spellings?
Comes the revolution!
